13 Going-Out Outfits That All Start With Your Jeans

When you start to think about it, jeans have come a long way since the denim staple first made its appearance among the closets of America in the 1800s. What once was reserved for the likes of farmers and the counter culture has now become an essential piece every fashion lover should have in his or her wardrobe. Sure, they make for a classic go-to on a day-to-day basis, but a pair of jeans can also create an effortlessly cool going-out outfit, too. Not to say that your more formal looks don’t have a time and a place for those evenings out on the town, but when you’re simply planning on heading to a laid-back happy hour with your crew or a last-minute date night with your S.O., pulling on a pair of your favorite jeans can give you a complete outfit in a mere matter of seconds.
For all you blue jean babies out there (as well as for those who like to wear other washes), we took it upon ourselves to find the chicest going-out looks featuring jeans from our favorite It girls. Scroll down to give yourself ample inspiration for your next casual night out below.
